G is again closed as well as ,thevent-pipe I.

In the casing D is arranged a stopper G, The funnel F has its outlet atone side, as

of glass or other suitable material and norindicated in Figs. l and 3,so that unauthormally litting into the lower portion of the ized personscannot well get at the stopperG` casing D when the bottle A is in anupright and hold the same in an open position for refilling the bottlewith spurious goods after the bottle has been once emptied of itsoriginal contents.

The device is very simple and durable in construction, is not liable toget out of order,

can be cheaply manufactured, and readily placed in position.

Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire tosecure by Letters Patent- 1. A non-reillable bottle, comprising a casingfixed in the neck of a bottle, a conical stopper having anoutlet-channel and mounted to slide in said casing, and an outlet-tubeixed in the casing and opening at one end into the bottle, the other endof the tube opening into said stopper-outlet when the stopper has movedinto an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, as set forth.

2. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing fixed in the neck of abottle, a conical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slidein said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at oneend into the bottle, the other end of the tube opening into saidstopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost positionupon tilting the bottle, said tube being polygonal in cross-section toform a guideway for the stopper 'to slidein, and to prevent the stopperfrom turning, as set forth.

3. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing Iixed in the neck of abottle, aconical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slidein said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at oneend into the bottle, the other end ofthe tube opening into the saidstopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost positionupon tilting the bottle, and a cover for said casing and serving tolimit the outward, movement of said stopper, the coverhaving an apertureadapted to register with said channel when the stopper has moved into anouter position, as set forth.

4. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing fixed in the neck of abottle, a conical stop- `casing and opening at one end into the bottle,

the other end of the tube opening into the said stopper-outlet When thestopper has moved into an outermost position upon tilting the bottle, acover for said casing and serving to limit the outward vmovement of saidstopper, the cover having an aperture adapted to register with saidchannel Whenthe stopper has moved into an outer position,and a funnelover Said casing and cover and having its opening at one side, as setforth.

5. A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing xed in the neck of abottle,a conical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slidein said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at oneend into the bottle, the other end of the tube opening into saidstopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost positionupon tilting the bottle, and an air-vent pipe extending from the casinginto the bottle, the air-vent pipe being normally closed bythe stopper,as set forth.

6. .A non-refillable bottle, comprising a casing fixed in the neck of abottle, a conical stopper having an outlet-channel and mounted to slidein said casing, an outlet-tube fixed in the casing and opening at oneend into the bottle, the other end of the tube opening into said.stopper-outlet when the stopper has moved into an outermost positionupon tilting the bottle, an air-vent pipe extending from the casing intothe bottle, the air-vent pipe being normally closed by the stopper, acover over said casing and having an air-vent opening, and a funnel oversaid casing and cover and having an air-vent opening, as set forth.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in thepresence of two subscribing witnesses. u
